@Steven_Hyden You did a great job. Always love your thoughts Steven. Keep it up.

@zbogus77 Man… Vita Nostra was such an excellent book. I loved the entire vibe, and the concept…highly recommend that one for anyone who’s not read it.

[Metal_Lawyer 🎸🤘⚖️ @LegalDistortion]

@Handles_71 I’m just glad that they put something out that sounds like it was exactly what THEY wanted to put out. It wasn’t for the charts. It wasn’t for relevancy. It wasn’t to make a statement. It was for FUN. Sounds like four lads just excited to make music together.

[Metal_Lawyer 🎸🤘⚖️ @LegalDistortion]

@u2breathe Agreed. Can’t Stop Us Now a close No. 2

[Metal_Lawyer 🎸🤘⚖️ @LegalDistortion]

It’s FUN.

Bono described it as being full of “defiant joy”, and that’s exactly what it is. Exactly what I wanted and needed from U2.

It sounds very different from anything they’ve put out this century and I am absolutely here for it.

Our brand new 16th studio album, Carnaval De Luz, is officially out now. Link in bio.

@holocen_epok Can you maybe toss me a list of 4 or 5 contenders? Give me a little taste of what might be coming? 😆

[Metal_Lawyer 🎸🤘⚖️ @LegalDistortion]

@trygraptor Glorify is amazing. Can’t Stop Us Now is U2’s more experimental side and it WORKS.

Torn. Made me emotional. I listened to it three times back to back to back after hearing it the first time. It’s excellent.

[Metal_Lawyer 🎸🤘⚖️ @LegalDistortion]

@trygraptor If the world is at war - think that’s the only track here I’m not really connecting with at all. Feels like “filler” to me that was inserted just to give Bono a chance to be preachy Bono.

Superficiality is great…just don’t love that Bono gives us a spelling lesson at the end.

[Metal_Lawyer 🎸🤘⚖️ @LegalDistortion]

@trygraptor Mirror Maker is so good. That guitar is unreal!!

[Metal_Lawyer 🎸🤘⚖️ @LegalDistortion]

This is the first take I’ve seen where I agree with every single opinion on each track 👇

[Paul Muad’Dib @trygraptor]

Carnaval De Luz first listen quick thoughts track per track

1. Carnival De Luz - oh this is gonna be different! zooropa-esque

2. La Reina - very Achtung, like the outgoing refrain. BASS

3. Street of Dreams - fits here nicely

4. Rosalía- thought it’d be cringe, banger instead

[Metal_Lawyer 🎸🤘⚖️ @LegalDistortion]

@BorkThrone Which one should I listen to first as I take a break from marathon listening to the new U2 record

[Metal_Lawyer 🎸🤘⚖️ @LegalDistortion]

@gregisenberg “Charizards” is killing me 😂
But it’s true.

[Metal_Lawyer 🎸🤘⚖️ @LegalDistortion]

This is an album by U2

[I G. @ignatius_om]

#U2CarnavalDeLuz is probably the most U2 album U2 ever made.

[Metal_Lawyer 🎸🤘⚖️ @LegalDistortion]

So it’s going to continue into Friday?

This is my favorite review of the new U2 record...written by a fan, for fans.

Love the sentiment that we "didn't need a new U2 album -- we needed this one".

[andrew korpan @andrewkorpan1]

I'm still working on my track and album rankings — both will be up by tomorrow — but as fans are hearing it for the first time, consider revisiting my review of U2's CARNAVAL DE LUZ. We didn't need a new U2 album — we needed this one.

Imagine this between “Bad” and “Where the Streets Have No Name.” Chills.

[justin curl @curl_justin]

Yes! More legal scholars should be writing about frontier AI legal issues — so many intersect perfectly with their expertise.

And yet not enough do, citing concerns that they’ll say something dumb or don’t know enough about AI.

For what it’s worth, I don’t think you need special insight into the technical details around AI models. It’s often enough to imagine what would happen if the cost of intelligence approached zero or if analysis could be completed much more quickly.

Some questions that seem pressing are

1. What can Flock teach us about AI-powered surveillance? Could ongoing automated monitoring count as per se unreasonable under the 4A?

2. Government deployments: What should AI models do when faced with unlawful or awful requests? They could refuse, push back but comply, answer normally, or escalate to a human? If they escalate, who do they escalate to?

3. If tort liability is to be a valuable deterrent, how can you pull forward timelines to a judgment? Are there procedural shortcuts that you can take to make sure it’s influencing behavior?

4. Is an order the president issues through an AI agent an “official act”? And are conversations with AI agents subject to executive privilege?

"The only viable way to make law and government is thus through relentless, highly structured and broadly collaborative local experimentation. This model, they noted, is neither ‘top down’ nor ‘bottom up’ but both at the same time..." https://t.co/upGGvvTG9l
